Vernazza is a delightful linen blend that brings the best traits of our favorite warm weather fibers. The blend of viscose, linen & cotton has beautiful drape, structure & breathability. The yarn consists of colorful viscose wrapped around a core of cotton& linen. This technique gives the yarn an incredible dappled, marled look. Truly a textural delight, Vernazza may be worked on larger needles for a relaxed fabric with lots of drape or smaller needles for a more structured fabric. The palette of earth & sky tones will transport you to Italy! Perfect for knitting ponchos, tees, tanks, cardigans & market or beach bags.
